Chemical Grouting

Charlotte Department of Transportation (CDOT) is committed to enhancing the driving, bicycling, and walk experience through planning, operating, and maintaining the City’s transportation choices for residents and visitors. An important component in the operation and maintenance of the transportation network is the maintenance of storm drainage systems and subsurface soils. The city has more than 3,800 miles of drainage pipe and over 150,000 associated inlets, outfalls and other systems. The Street Maintenance Division of CDOT serves as maintenance providers for much of this system in the right of way. Chemical grouting provides a repair and maintenance method that is less disruptive than typical excavation methods.  The services generally consist of the provision of as-needed CHEMICAL GROUTING on storm water pipes, collars, subsurface voids and other areas as appropriate.

DC Pad Mounted Disconnect Equipment Purchase

The current Blue Line (BL) Traction Power Substation’s Pad Mounted Disconnect DC Switchgear, (eight (8)), was put into service 16 years ago on November 4, 2007. The Maintenance of Way (MOW) department has exhausted its in-house spare parts for this system, which has become obsolete. The pad-mounted disconnect DC switchgear for the BL is required for a mid-life refresh. MOW is upgrading and refreshing the Pad Mounted Disconnect DC Switchgear equipment for the BL.

Scope:

Vendor will provide nine (9) 2kA pad-mounted DC disconnect switch line-ups at the locations specified in the drawings. All disconnect switch line-ups shall be pre-assembled and include the following components:

Exterior operating handle (for manual operation, pad-lockable in both the open and closed positions)
2kA rated bolted pressure switch
Glastic standoff insulators
Mechanical lugs
500 MCM mechanical lugs
Switch control circuit boards
Copper bus to switches
Limit switch for remote indication
Solenoid interlock
“MAC” switch nameplate with switch serial number and rating
AC Relays

The Pad Mounted Disconnect DC Switchgear is designed for installation on a concrete pad outdoors. It allows for the isolation of a power circuit by physically disconnecting the conductors, functioning as a large, weatherproof switch that can be operated safely without exposing live parts to the environment.
